Looking at their public statements, lower gas prices for Americans certainly don’t seem to be among them.   Politico reports, “The Energy Department isn’t working to lower gasoline prices directly, Secretary Steven Chu said Tuesday after a Republican lawmaker scolded him for his now-infamous 2008 comment that [...]
